Friday Faves

This week has been dramatic for us, per usual. Bobby has canker sores on his poor little tongue, and--since he's male--that means that the whole world has to stop turning. Vivi is also in this little phase that I affectionally call the "Hot Mess Express," where she runs around fussing for no reason and frequently throws herself on the ground in protest (of nothing). So, yeah, be jealous.

On the other hand, the weather was awesome yesterday, and we spent most of our time outside playing in the yard eating dirt, swinging on our porch swing, listening to Halloween music, and attempting to put up Halloween decorations...which really just consisted of me taking stuff out of boxes here and there and chasing Vivi away from the street while trying to keep Bobby out of anthills. 

Not going great so far..

Also, kicking the sugar habit is significantly more difficult any time between October-New Year's Eve. I have candy and pumpkin bullshit staring me down every way I turn.

Onto some fun Friday Faves:

1) I love funny baby onesies. Granted, I once put Baby Bobby in a onesie that said The Man/The Legend with arrows pointing up and down...so my humor tends to border on the inappropriate. But is this not the funniest onesie you've seen in a while? It's not racy or anything, but it makes me laugh every time I see it. 

2) I am forever cork-obsessed, so this cork watch really does it for me. I normally gravitate toward larger, more masculine watches, but I love this neutral, petite one. 

3) This has had me LOL-ing all morning. Because I'm nearly 30 and still occasionally have conversations like this with my mama. Especially ugly-crying on FaceTime.

4) I've been hunting for a pair of boots for Viv to wear once the weather drops, and I think I've decided on these Minnetonkas. Not only are they adorable and on point with the boho vibe, but they will match mine. I can't resist mama + mini matching shoes! 

5) I'm a hat girl, through and through. Mainly because I hate that week before your hair appointment where your roots start looking jank and there's nothing you can do about it. And that's another thing I love about Fall--it's cool enough for you to wear a hat and not feel miserable and/or look like an idiot.   I don't have a ton of Fall/Winter hats, and this knitted turban beanie is going on my wish list. I love how you get the subtle look of a turban without actually committing to a full-on front knot. 

6) I don't drink excessively anymore due to my IC, but I am going to make this Autumn Sangria for the UGA/Bama showdown tomorrow. Not gonna lie, I'm equal parts nervous and excited to watch this, and I'm praying it's not a shitshow.

7) Vivi recently got a few new pieces of Fall clothing, and these sailor wide-leg jeans are my favorite thing she has. They are maybe the cutest thing I've ever seen in my whole life. I wish I could pull them off the way she does, but alas, I don't have the thigh gap. 

8) Fall is my favorite season to sport cute little flats, and I have my eye on this sparkle pair and these snake skins. They're both so versatile for the season and would go well with almost anything!

9) My tots have been in cahoots with each other to make my life miserable over the past few days. Vv is cutting her canine teeth and is a sour little crabapple, while Bobby has become masterful at pushing her down while I'm not looking and flooding the bathroom with sink water. Sometimes it's hard to not take these things personally, because after a while, I begin to wonder are they actually trying to break me down? I recently read this article, and it was one of those things that showed up at the right place at the right time. It helped me to take a step back, and it has some really good pointers for riding out the craziness. 

10) Pioneer Woman has an awesome line of kitchen goodies out at Walmart, and it really is fab. I had to look at it twice, because I could've sworn I'd walked into the magical land of Target instead. I snagged some mix-n-match soup bowls for a sweet steal, and I can't wait to serve up some pumpkin soup out of these bad boys!

11) FALL TV! I am a loser who gets really invested in tv shows, and my favorites all come on in the Fall. A couple of my faves that I'm currently DVR-ing include "How to Get Away with Murder" and "Scream Queens," but I'm most excited about "American Horror Story: Hotel" that premieres next Wednesday. And, on the subject of TV, I'm so anxious about tomorrow's UGA/Bama game. Fingers and toes crossed!

Happy Friday!
